SPOILER: Do not read on if you haven't done the Plague City Quest Series (Plague City, Sheep Herder, Biohazard, Undeground Pass, Regicide, Roving Elves, Mourning's End Part 1) and do not wish to be spoiled of what will happen


















Finally, this sequel ties together some seriously loose ends. Firstly, who was to think that in Regicide, you would kill the wrong king?

For those that don't know the exact plot, let me take you back:

It started as a rescue mission into the heart of West Ardougne, to save someone that was only helping someone with the plague. After rescuing Elena, she asks you to find out if there really is a Plague. You find out there is not. If there isn't then WHY are they still over there? Before you can answer that, you find out the "real" reason: Lord Iban is being held in the Underground Pass, and cannot be afforded to cross over to Kandarin. So, you are called upon to dispose of him, and you do. This opens the way to re-enchant the Well of Voyage, to the lands of Tirannwn. You then meet Lord Iorwerth, who asks you to dispose of King Tyras any way you can. You burn him into a neat pile of ashes. A helpful blonde elf tells you that you've made probably the worst mistake ever. Whilst Lathas doesn't know about what you've done, you go about your day until Ariannwn calls you back to Lleyta. You then learn that the mourners are elves, and they are looking for the "Temple of Light". However, the only way they go about this is that they take slaves (under theory, those that knew too much) and force them to dig/mine/search for this temple. Many are being lost at a rapid rate. Now, recently, an NPC called Carla appeared who said that she was informed by the Mourners that her son died. I'm sure he did, by now. Or do you have to rescue him in ME2? The reason why they need the Temple of Light is to speed up the "End-Games". What on earth could this mean?!

One of the key links that was missing for me was, 'Why would Iorwerth want to kill other Elves and Tyras?' The answer, I found whilst in Lleyta: One of the ancient tomes. They stated that there were initally eight Elven clans: Baxtorian and Iorwerth are the only ones I can confirm at this time, but there are a few more that are named. When the others built Arandar and left Iorwerth in Priffnidas (and made alliances with other races such as Humans and Gnomes), the Iorwerth clan was left to run amok in the city, elves slaughering elves, and the like. Many wanted to leave behind the elves in the city, but Baxtorian said himself that they needed all eight of the clans to flourish.

The reason why they needed Tyras out of the picture, was that the Iorwerth clan didn't exactly favour the council's decision to create an alliance with Humans. This is why you don't hold grudges.

Sidenote: The god now glorified by the Elves is also the creator of the Crystal castle--Seren.

It's interesting they mentioned the Elven heritage a smdige in Roving Elves and in the Waterfall Quest, but not as much as the books do in Lletya.

That's why I only have 57 quest points...

I only do quests that are valuable towards my well being, like Dragon Slayer and Heroes.

i like doing quests, 107 quest points :\. the only quests i dont like to do are the ones that i cant do because of my skills or my combat lvl. also some of them require other quests to be done to do it. i really should get working on some skills to do those quests.

I see.

Well, I have one more theory about this Temple of Light and the Underground Pass:

I think that Iban is an elf. That would theoretically explain things, why the Elves could cross over so easily and why they didn't exactly go back.

The temple of Light, I expect some UBER-strong magic.
